And GARMIN again! The Forerunner
series is breaking records one by one
and with the 405CX sports Watch they
once again invented a breaking new li­
mits gadget.
Track your heart rate, distance,
calorie consumption, pace. Unne­
cessary to mention that all of this
works perfectly together with the
GARMIN software. And as
GARMIN is into the web2.0
social networking stuff you
can transfer your information
with other 405CX owners so
that you can compete vir­
tually agains them.
The watch also comes with
the optional foot pod in case
you are burning some fat on
the treadmill so that the GPS
can't track your distance and lo­
cation. Unfortunately there is no
sync system yet that brings the
data into the ENDORPHINUM platt­
form ­ but time will tell.

In times where people even steal ghost bikes in
an urban area, you shouldn't economize by
buying a cheap lock to protect all the pennies,
cents, Yen and Yins and Yans you invested into
your custom bike. Tough locks until today weight
tons and wer bulky wanting to be carried around
where ever you go. Until now!
Kryptonite just introduced the "Evolution Mini".
They are so sure about this product that it
includes a $2000 value Anti­Theft Protection so
that if you bike ever stolen when locked down
with the Evolution Mini, Kryptonite will cover the
base purchase price of your registered item
when you send them a piece of the brocken lock.
As long these these buzzzztords
who stole your bike will leave
that evidence there.
The shaft of the lock is
made of half inch
hardended high­grade
carbon alloy steel with a
sturdy steel crossbar. A
reinforced cuff right over
that crossbar and
cyclinder adds a plus in
security and the body of
the lock itself is
designed to resists
both cutting and
leverage attacks.

An another TREK bike that we
present! Last month we had the more
sporty one but this one ain`t just
sporty but also awesome looking retro!
Apart of the beautiful design you once
again get a bike with the belt chain system
coming with a model entitled "District" coming
in a beach cruiser style with orange accents.
Just to get the advantages of the belt chain
system back into your mind: no oiling, lubing,
greasing etc. apart of
the brakes. Great
invention from
our point of
view.

Ok now that you bought the Trek bike mentioned
before, how are you going to transport it while
travelling around? SciCon is your friend! The
AEROTECH EVOLUTION is made out of ABS, a
plastic type that absorbs the energy of a fall. Drop it
and it may get dented, but it remains intact.
The great thing about this case is that the bike
wheels are fixed with quick clamping devices and a
nylon bag inside holds the saddle, shoes and
accessoires. Unnecessary to mention that the
frame and other parts can be fixed by belts
to protect them from sliding. And
by talking of sliding: the
case rolls on reinforced

with bearings.

A lot of sports consultings rest on the result
that swimming is the best to not stress your
bones or your spine. For those that do not
know how to swim or do not like to get wet,
arrived the ALTER­G Anti­Gravity Treadmill.
It makes you feel as if you are jogging or wal­
king in zero gravity so your bones won't be
stressed or in case of an injury you might be
able to continue your exercises.
So the model that is starting to be sold from
November 2009 on and called M300 might
make you feel like jogging on the moon but
unfortunately you won't be able to jump as
high as Armstrong did back in the 60's.
Oh and if you want to buy one of these for
your own to put it in your cosy flat, you might
have to pay the same price as like a space
toilet might cost: U$ 24,500.

WOW! You just cycled 200 Km, or ran 40 Km
or Swum 1 Km and now THIS! The latest
massage chair from Hammacher Schlemmer
is an astonishing piece of superb technology
that will change the way you ever thought
about massage chairs. It's the T300 of all
robotic chairs you own as this one massages
your whole body and by "whole body" we mean
(nearly) THE WHOLE BODY. It features 22
integrated inflating air cells in the armrest alone,
for therapeutic message from your upper arms
down to your finger tips while your hips are treated
by air cells on both sides of the seat.
There are also optical sensors built in, which scan
your body for Shiatsu points so the pressure
meaning the massage will fit the best result
depending on your body structure.
We could continue to describe what else this
wondermachine is taking care about apart of your
fingertips, but it wouldn't fit in this space.
Whatever you remember from your last Asia
wellness trip ­ this chair does exactly the
same apart of speaking Thai.

So you keep yourself on a straight
diet for the day of a competition
but we all know how hard it is.
Every time you pass by the fridge
you remember that choclat bar
you bought and is waiting there as
special reward after the event and
you start to sweat because you
don't want to break the promise
you made to your body.
Well the FridgeGuard is there to
take care about your seduction.
A built­in sensor takes care about
any move made within a certain
range yelling at the

warning. This way you
will always keep in mind
why he is waiting
there. Your only

What a great concept the
"StressWatch" is ! This concept is
that a black bar on that watch shows
your stress level, whereas the blue
and green ones show your mellow
while pink, red or orange indicate
that you are just a few steps away
from a full tilt!
Fortunately you can not see these
on the picture below, what is a good
sign. As this is a concept you
certainly will not wear such one that
fast at your next Marathon, Triathlon
or cycling race. On the other hand, it
would be very interesting to see how
the average athletes in terms of
stress feels alike right before a race!

hills on, but also won't rip my legs off at the
knees on the descent on the other side.
For me the bike looks great, nice and simple
and clean (usually) being white. The position is
somewhere between a road bike and mountain
bike, which gives me great control in traffic. It
just feels 'right'. When I haven't ridden it for a
while, for whatever reason, it gives me a buzz
to get back on and remember why I built it the
way I did.
For me cycling is all about just enjoying
yourself no matter where you're riding, or
why. This bike lets me do that on the daily
commute to and from work ­ something I've
found only a bike is capable of.

"The perfect plan" by
Headphone Scientist is a great
HipHop beat with a beautiful
vocal. The tune is perfectly
positive but the voice reminds
you that there is a second side
of the medal. The whole album
entitled "More dead birds"
comes with 9 tunes but this one
realy makes it into the OSLT
hall of fame.
